Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz said on Wednesday that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder had always talked about promoting vandalism in the country.

Addressing an event, CM Maryam lambasted the embattled party, saying, “The permission of staging the politics can be given, but not terrorism. Today, they [PTI] had called the protest, but hardly up to seven people poured on to the streets.”

She recalled the tenure of the deposed prime minister, saying, “The person who is now behind bars at Adiala jail had never announced free medicines. I have always heard about vandalism and attacks on police.”

“It is on my accounts that the PTI had called for the protests. But always remained unsuccessful. The situation was such that they [PTI] had compelled to bring people from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP),” said CM Maryam.

She maintained: “The PTI could not even manage to gather 2,000 people in Lahore’s public gathering.”

– ‘Apni Chhat Apna Ghar’ Housing Scheme –

Earlier in August, CM Maryam launched "Apni Chhat Apna Ghar" scheme on to provide affordable housing.

During her speech, CM Maryam expressed pride in the successful creation of the scheme, emphasizing the government's commitment to quickly building homes for those in need. "We have succeeded in creating this scheme, and we will quickly build houses and provide them to the people," she stated.

Punjab chief minster said that both she and former prime minister Nawaz Sharif had been eagerly awaiting its implementation as during his era Nawaz Sharif gave land to farmers, and now, we are continuing that legacy.

Maryam Nawaz stressed the profound impact of homeownership, saying, "They say that if you give someone a home and a roof, there is no greater service." To support this, she announced that the government would provide a 15 lakh interest-free loan for 5 marla land in urban areas and 10 marla land in rural areas. "No payments will be required for the first three months," she added.
